I feel like it wasnt for me

Personally i feel like the stories in the book felt a little dry and didn't have much going for them. well they probably did well in the nosleep forums on reddit I don't think they adapted well into a novel.

Would be better with different narration

This seems to be written towards beginner scary story listeners. The writing is good but basic and gentle for the most part.

The narrator is monotone and creates no excitement, thrill or suspense. There are no pauses between stories and it listens like one long run on sentence.

Casual Modern Pulp

Light horror goosebumps style with a surfer dude style narrator and modern sensibilities. At first I was disappointed the scares weren't more 'extreme' and that the narrator's casual tone lacked gravity. Eventually I was able to best enjoy the stories as cartoonish pop culture references with a bit of macabra to them. The narrator's vibe fits the 'saturday morning scares' feel of the shorts and they inter splice occasional other voices that work well. This isnt to say there's not a bit of gore and total weirdness between Star Wars and Redbox references. (Reviewer received a free book for an honest review).

Good stories, not a great narrator

Overall I enjoyed the stories, wish some were a bit longer but still thought they were solid. The narrator is what brings this down for me. Pretty monotone made it tough to listen to. I also wish the chapter breaks were longer, they really just sound like one sentence to another.

Good stories

good stories but could use some help on better separation between the stories and less monotone

Unique and Interesting stories

The stories started light and got harder as they went on. I love that this author doesn't just regurgitate the same old stories with a little spin. They definitely put their own imagination to work and don't just copy others work. Some were scarey, some not so much, but they were all worth the listen. The narration could be better but it doesn't take away from anything. It's like laying in bed at night listening to creepypasta. Buy it. it's worth the credit.

A few good stories that could use more development. ú

I received a copy of this audiobook for review purposes.

This collection of short stories is a mixed bag. Most of these short stories feel like very early ideas of possible stories. Like the start of what could of been a longer, more developed story. In some cases this is very disappointing, since I'd love to see where the writer would of taken the idea, had they spent more time with it.
There was really one story that I found interesting and satisfied with. Another where it just ends abruptly and I was very disappointed in not getting more to that story. And like I said a few that felt like basic ideas that should possibly be returned to for more developing and others that possibly wouldn't develop much further.
I wasn't a fan of the narration. Felt very rushed and void of any emotion.

Not a fan.

The voice actor was not that good. Very melatonin. I am not sure what the age level was for this, but they were not scary.

Nice short creepypasta type horror with awful narrator

Breaks between stories would be nice. Better than monotone voice that hikes up at the end of each sentence. Stories themselves are short and the type to be told around campfire with kids

When does it get scary?

Overall no sleep isn’t what I’d call these stories more like put you to sleep. Narrator was trying so hard to sound like chillz from YouTube. First story was all about closure nothing scary about that.
